Former US president George HW Bush has been admitted to a Texas hospital suffering shortness of breath, a family spokesman said on December 23.
“President Bush was taken by ambulance to the Houston Methodist Hospital as a precaution after experiencing a shortness of breath on the evening of December 23,” his spokesman Jim McGrath said.
“The 90-year-old former president will be held for observation,” Jim added. The 41st US president is the oldest of the four surviving former presidents. — AFP
